Suburbanizing the Masses examines how collective forms of transport have contributed to the spatial and social evolution of towns and cities in various countries since the mid nineteenth century.

Scaling Up: The Institution of Chemical Engineers and the Rise of a New Profession
ISBN: 9780792366928 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Precursors of the modern chemical industry began to emerge in Northern Europe in the middle of the eighteenth century. The Industrial Revolution boosted activities such as soap-making, glassmaking and textiles production, which required increasing quantities of chemical products. The Lead Chamber process for the manufacture of sulphuric acid, required for the production of dye, was developed in the 1740s by John Roebuck then based in Birmingham. Production of this key commodity rose steadily. By the 1820s, British annual production had reached 10 000 tons of 100% acid. By 1900, Britain was...

Transport Policy: Learning Lessons from History
ISBN: 9781472460059 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The key aim of this volume is to demonstrate ways in which an understanding of history can be used to inform present-day transport and mobility policies. This is not to say that history repeats itself, or that every contemporary transport dilemma has an historical counterpart: rather, the contributors to this book argue that in many contexts of transport planning a better understanding of the context and consequences of past decisions and processes could lead to more effective policy decisions. Collectively the authors explore the ways in which the methods and approaches of historical...

From Rail to Road and Back Again?: A Century of Transport Competition and Interdependency
ISBN: 9781409440468 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 446 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The coming of the railways signalled the transformation of European society, allowing the quick and cheap mass transportation of people and goods on a previously unimaginable scale. By the early decades of the twentieth century, however, the domination of rail transport was threatened by increased motorised road transport which would quickly surpass and eclipse the trains, only itself to be challenged in the twenty-first century by a renewal of interest in railways. Yet, as the studies in this volume make clear, to view the relationship between road and rail as a simple competition between...
